How about....???

[DJ984]

Hey guys,

i was thinking the other day (quite painful it is... don't plan to do it again any time soon )

What about a Jap style swap meet? We could go to a carpark somewhere (would need to be big and open and have free parking and not interrup people's social lives)

and we could sell / swap parts amongst each other...

I'd be willing to do some organising and arrange for food vans etc to be there as well. i think it would be an interesting day, bring your cars, parts and accessories you have for sale and try and sell them. (if it where successfull we could hold them regularly as well )

gimme your opinions guys.

Cheers,

Dave.

What a great idea, you could bring your Volks and try and sell them

[DJ984]

always one wanker in a crowd isn't there....(assuming that was sarcasm in your voice)

any CONSTRUCTIVE comments???

[Blitz]

Seriously, its not a bad idea

[DJ984]

thank you. i thought it sounded good too... but where could it be?... i've got 1 or 2 ideas but i'd like to see what other people think.

[Jordan]

yes, I like the idea. maybe some big vendors can come also and show their wares?

A Japanese-import flea-market. Will have to arange for a public space with a council somewhere first, or else just meet up in the dead of night Wangan-style

If your looking for a place to hold this little shindig then I recommend a drive in movie theatre.

That's actually an excellent suggestion

They have a massive amount of space and easy entry and exit... I wonder if they'd let us use the carpark for free though :confused:

[BLK R33 GTST]

Great idea mate, i'd be there 4sure

[Binky1970]

I think that they might charge you a small rental fee or alternativly you could charge everyone en entry fee of $5 mabey. That would probably cover your cost for venue and mabey a BBQ.

[DJ984]

progressing really well guys. keep the ideas coming. I like the one about vendors too

i'll look into drive-in's any where else you'd suggest? (where is a drive in in sydney?)

[dacow]

Bass Hill has a drive in?

[Binky1970]

There is one at Bass Hill and one out at Eastern Creek/Blacktown

[DJ984]

kool kool. they're both owned by greater union? sorry, i've looked them up on the net and this seems to be right?

any one have a contact email for them or anything?

Cheers.

this reminds me of the group servicing day which was a good idea but never eventuated.

[DJ984]

lol! well i'll do my best to get this happening... but we need to start with a place i think... once i have that i can try to organise everything else around it

[GTR032]
